Over a year after their first meeting at the 2017 Mae Young Classic, Shayna Baszler and Kairi Sane met in a NXT Women's Championship match at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn 4. Sane won the first meeting becoming the first wrestler to win the Mae Young Classic and went on to challenge for the Championship but was unsuccessful.

The following is an excerpt from the Fightful Wrestling play-by-play provided by Ryan Cook.

Kairi applies the Anchor in the ropes to the count of four before hitting an Alabama slam, but Shayna gets her knees up when she goes for the Insane Elbow. Shayna then puts Kairi in a rear naked choke before Kairi rolls back and pins Shayna's shoulders to the mat for the pin and the win.
